On Monday, up to 377 tourist vehicles visited the Chikkamgalur hills, the first day of the new system that won the entrance passages, started by the Chikkamagalur district.
Tourists from different parts of the state who received entry cards after paying the fixed fee online visited hilly stations.

The place can visit a maximum of 1200 vehicles in two slots.
